In January, New York City Mayor Bill deBlasio announced a huge expansion for pre-K in NYC. The Montessori Observer had a cynical take here, on the scale mismatch between New York’s 100,000 4-year-olds and an estimated 200,000 4-year-olds in Montessori schools in the rest of the country.

The a scale problem remains. I imagine deBlasio looking out the window of his office, seeing the banner, and barking to his secretary, “Get me Montessori on line one!” Who would he call, and what could we deliver?
